**MODERN METHOD OF AUCTION**

Lead In - FOR SALE BY AUCTION – DEVELOPMENT / INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY

An increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a brick-built detached structure occupying a prominent roadside position within an established and well-connected setting.

Although currently in a derelict condition, the property offers clear potential for redevelopment, refurbishment or alternative use, making it an exciting prospect for investors, developers, builders or owner-occupiers seeking a project.

Set on a defined plot with direct roadside access, the site benefits from a position on the edge of a busy street scene, surrounded by a mix of residential housing, commercial premises and local shops, helping support a variety of possible future uses, subject to all necessary planning permissions and consents.

The property has previously had commercial use and we understand that planning was previously commenced with a view toward residential conversion, although this was not completed by the current owner. Buyers are advised to make their own enquiries with the local authority regarding any historic applications, existing permissions, future development potential and intended use.

This versatile opportunity could suit a number of uses including, but not limited to:
•Small commercial premises
•Workshop / studio space
•Residential conversion
•Garage / storage use

All subject to planning permission and relevant approvals.

Properties of this nature are becoming increasingly difficult to find, particularly those offering such flexibility, visibility and affordability. Whether you are looking for your next development project, a commercial venture, or a site with long-term value-add potential, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
